We divide 397055 by 88
We want to divide 397055 by 88.

Step 1:
3 divided by 88 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 39 / 88

Moving on to step 2:
88 goes into 39 0 times with a remainder of 39.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 39 leaves us with 39.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 39, then carry on: 397 / 88

Step 3:
When dividing 397 by 88, we get 4 with a remainder of 45.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 352 from 397, we get 45.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 45 and continue with: 450 / 88

Going ahead to step 4:
450 divided by 88 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 45.0
If we subtract 440 from 450, we get 10.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 105 / 88

Going ahead to step 5:
88 can be fit into 105 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 451.0
If we take 88 away from 105, we end up with 17.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 175 / 88

Going ahead to step 6:
175 divided by 88 is 1 with a remainder of 87.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4511.0
If we take 88 away from 175, we end up with 87.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 870, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 88 fits into 870 9 times, leaving a remainder of 78.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4511.9
Subtract 792 from 870 to get 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
780 divided by 88 is 8 with a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4511.98
The remainder is 76 after subtracting 704 from 780.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
760 divided by 88 is 8 with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4511.988
If we take 704 away from 760, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 4511.988 and a remainder of 0.0056.
